Scale Drawing

A scale drawing is a drawing smaller or larger than an original photo or shape. Its exactly the same shape, just in a smaller or bigger form. 
A scale factor is how much you enlarge or reduce from the original drawing. 
If the scale factor is <1, it means to enlarge the drawing by 1. If the scale factor is >1 it means to reduce one from the original drawing.

Our presentation was on proportional rates. We made a business and showed what we learned during this unit. Our business was a pet play service. We showed a proportional graph, table, and equation. We also showed a non-proportional side to our business. We talked about pay per hour, how many hours we would work to make one million dollars, and explained our rates.We used the app desmo's graph to create our table, graph, and equation. 

My Dream Classroom

In this project, we needed to take the base layout of Ms. Burns' classroom, and change it into the classroom we wanted. The best part was going crazy putting things into the classroom. But You start to realize that the classroom is really small , and you need to be somewhat realistic. A scale drawing is when you take an original 2D drawing and expand it or reduce it by a consistant size. This taught me how to make one and how to spacially organize.
